Mr and Mrs Smith is an exceptional spy thriller that balances dark comedy and action. There is a realistic chemistry and high intensity matched with expert comedy from Donald Glover and Maya Erskine that brings new life into the genre.

A visually stunning account of the Bloody Hundred’s time in service that does not glorify war but adopts a character driven approach to offer something new. It doesn’t pick up until the second half of the season with too much time is spent on repetitive narrative structure when a deeper exploration between the Hundredth and the fighter pilots could have offered more than brief appearances in the final two episodes.

Though it could seem like Griselda is attempting to replicate the popularity of other shows in the same genre, it's still an interesting show to watch. The primary feature that draws viewers in is the opportunity to witness Sofía Vergara in all her amazing acting glory. Although she is fantastic in this series and no longer the trophy wife with an accent, the show's pacing problems are nearly completely resolved.

Mean Girls: The Musical had the potential to be a hit, but this adaptation of the original 2004 movie fails to find a secure audience. Relying on the nostalgia and fans of the classic movie, this version feels like it's catered more towards the younger tik tok generation. From questionable costume choices of The Plastics to the odd way of shooting and overuse of autotune, Mean Girls: The Musical left us wanting to like this movie a lot more than we did.

A true adaption to the books that brings to life the characters with perfect casting in all areas. Complex themes and relationships are explored between the demigods and their parents as well as effortlessly combining the mythical and modern worlds. Viewers of all ages can enjoy this series without reading the book and still be enthralled in the world.

Wonka tries too hard and uses what little flair it has in the visual elements of the film that will delight younger audiences for a moment. A lack of plot and charm, as well as bad pacing, make it a forgettable film that the musical numbers can’t save.

It is not a typical Nordic crime thriller but an interesting combination of American suspense and Scandinavian noir. The mystery is explored with nuance and a clever use of flashbacks to propel the mystery and keep you gripped and guessing for answers. This is a sure recommendation for anyone who loves a crime thriller mixed with a complex family dynamic.

Scott Pilgrim is back, but in this anime style, to bring a fun-filled watch that focuses on the evil exes to solve a mystery that runs throughout the series. Each episode is like a different genre that provides background for the exes and Ramona and stays true to the vibe of the comic and movie. The returning cast from the movie gives the series a nostalgic hit, and everyone brings their top game to the anime.

The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes expands the world of Panem and offers us a grittier, ruthless world than the original movies had. The areas are smaller, but the characters are bigger. Tom Blyth is exceptional as Coriolanus Snow and gives a layered performance. The world of Panem feels darker in this installment of The Hunger Games, more chaotic with escalated violence, and more focused on the Capitol to show their callous nature and how they hunger for violence as entertainment. Snow sees the world as an arena for the Hunger Games, and he will ensure he is the victor, unafraid of killing his closest companions to ensure Snow lands on top.

All things considered, The Hunting Moon is a good sequel to The Luminaries, offering a fresh perspective on Hemlock Falls and even the terrifying dwellings within the forest. The book's second half will keep you engrossed, and even its sporadic and pointless romantic subplot doesn't stop the reader from having a thrilling time.
